You could also try using massing to curtain wall conversion method. Then adjust the glazing panel family to suite. The problem ofcourse is to laid out individual panels and the brackets or fixings that fix it in place.
Techically, I think it is doable, if you can somehow make those panels family as
"scheduable" in Revit. It would definitely a nightmare to do it by hand panel by panel, but I think a bit of creative thinking using UV unwrapping programs to "laid" out the curtain wall form flat, then draft in the details of each panels is the method I would go for.
